pager¶

Module: mod_base

Show a pager for search results.

This generates a pager as seen on the search results pages. It is used in conjunction with a paged search result.

For example, a fulltext search where the search parameters come from the query string:

{% with m.search.paged[{fulltext cat=q.qcat text=q.qs page=q.page pagelen=20}] as result %}
  <ul>
    {% pager result=result dispatch="admin_overview_rsc" qargs %}
    {% for id,score in result %}
      <li><a href="">{{ m.rsc[id].title }}</a></li>
    {% empty %}
      <li>Nothing found</li>
    {% endfor %}
  </ul>
{% endwith %}

This will show a list of titles and above that the links to the next, previous and other pages.

Note

that we are using m.search.paged here and not m.search. The pager only works with results from m.search.paged.

The generated pager code will look something like (when searching for the text “filter”):

<ul class="pager block">
<li>« prev</li>
<li class="current"><a href="/admin/overview?qs=filter&page=1">1</a></li>
<li><a href="/admin/overview?qs=filter&page=2">2</a></li>
<li><a href="/admin/overview?qs=filter&page=3">3</a></li>
<li><a href="/admin/overview?qs=filter&page=4">4</a></li>
<li class="pager-sep">…</li>
<li><a href="/admin/overview?qs=filter&page=5">5</a></li>
<li><a href="/admin/overview?qs=filter&page=2">next»</a></li>
</ul>

The pager tag accepts the following arguments:

Argument	Description	Example
result	The result from a search. This must be a `#search_result` or a list. Note that the records should be the result of a `m.search.paged` and not of a `m.search` call.	result=mysearchresult
dispatch	Name of the dispatch rule to be used for the page urls. Defaults to the dispatch rule of the current page.	dispatch=”searchresult”
qargs	Append all the arguments in the HTTP request’s query string whose name starts with a ‘q’ as an argument to the dispatch rule.	qargs
hide_single_page	When this argument is true, do not show the pager when the result fits on one page (e.g. the pager will be useless).	hide_single_page=1
template	Name of the template for rendering the pager. Defaults to `_pager.tpl`. See below for specific arguments passed.	template=”_pager.tpl”
page	Current page number, the first page is page number 1. Fetched from the search result, this argument, or `q.page`.	page=2
pagelen	Number of items per page, fetch from the search result or `q.pagelen`. Defaults to 20.	pagelen=10
*	Any other argument is used as an argument for the dispatch rule.

Result argument¶

It is also possible to pass a list, a #rsc_list{ list=Ids } record, or a list of lists (pages) for the resut. In this case you need to perform the pagination for displaying the results yourself. You can use the chunk for this. The pager scomp will fetch the page and pagelen from the pager arguments, or from the query arguments (if any). If the list is pre-chunked then the pages does not need the pagelen argument.
